She defines her cooking style as low-fuss and taste-driven, as she focuses on easily accessible seasonal and locally-sourced ingredients to produce satisfying meals that are full of flavour.

Mary McCartney is proud to support Earth Hour, as “The food we eat and the way it is grown and transported – has a huge impact on our planet. There are many things we can do to make that impact more positive: opting for local and seasonal foods, for instance, or eating less meat. A candlelit meal enjoyed during Earth Hour is a fantastic opportunity to consider some of these changes and of course, to really focus on the food you’re eating, and the loved ones you are sharing it with!”
